Shinkon Quest: Maou no Musume wa Majime Yuusha o Otoshitai ♡ - Ch. 1 - Harold The Hero

"Hero, listen up." Totally sounds wrong. Way too informal. It lacks an air of pomp and circumstance you'd expect in the revelation of a prophecy. Perhaps write it as "Hark, O Hero."? It definitely has more gravitas this way.

 

[Hicleric]

Yona's design feels a bit overdone with all the bits and bobs, but I really like that tail's tip(?). Creates a distinct and unique impression with a bit more of a magical feel than you'd expect

This setup feels familiar but I can't recall where or how.

Demon wives are my weakness. I will be reading this until it's canceled.

 

[Ochrolv]

Being the hero sounds awful since you are basically relegated to being a slave to society & I don't blame his dad for abandoning that job. Doesn't seem like Yona is a bad girl & the book is basically allowing them to do the things that the church refrains a hero from doing. This has a follow from me so I look forward to the future chapters. Thanks for the translations.

This fucking book is cockblocking them

Can't tell if she's a shortstack or he's just huge. I hope it's the former we need more shortstacks.

I feel sorry for Harold who was brainwashed and given the task of a hero by his grandfather. He became a free slave to the dumb peasants.

Bro got brainwashed by feds

Hope the series ends with them saving the world and then conquering it as husband and wife

[Alesund]

She's just aroused by the sight, smell, and taste of blood. I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.

IS A DI-

RACLE
Really?

As for the series itself, usually when the waifu is air delivered to the protag he usually is just an unremarkable stand in for a lonely reader, but Harold here is basically in customer service, so he deserves it.

 

[Chizan]

Do you want to turn a hero into a demon lord? Because that's how you turn a hero into a demon lord.

...Book sus.

Same, brother.

Monster girls in general do it for me.

 

[TheBigMonk]

Thanks for the chapter!

So the hero is basically the equivalent of the overworked office worker trope; he does thankless work all day, every day because 'it's his duty'.

Now we also have the 'Oh woe is me to be forcibly married by the gods to my insanely beautiful succubus wife! She must hate it and is faking everything, but I wouldn't want to actually talk to her about it, that'd be embarrassing!'

Is the 'god book' going to force him to breed his wife and make a (minimum) baseball team of little human-demon hybrid heroes to be inducted to the hero-slave program?

 

[Mangamoz]

Damn, hero's life sucks.

 

[AcidVlad]

That's a nice new entry

 

[koga88]

Well well... looks like the demon wife is quite a beast hidden inside that cute facade. It'll be interesting to see if this holds up, easy follow here.

 

[Poinn]

No wonder his dad abandoned being a hero
